I thought it was okay. Not what I expected. Being Salem, we thought it would have more about witches and not mainly aboritions and orbs. I would've come out earlier and caught those missed sights since we mainly walked around a block. As far as our tour leader goes, I think Elaina was very knowledgeable and friendly.

Hello and thank you for your feedback. We offer two tours of Salem: The Salem Day Tour and The Salem Night Tour. The Salem Night Tour covers a brief history of Salem, especially the witch trials, but is specifically designed so that each stop covers a carefully chosen, reputable, and Salem-specific ghost story. For the majority of guests this blend of ghost stories and history is well received. The Salem Day Tour is more of a hidden gem in Salem. It is generally less attended but covers the Salem Witch Trials in much more detail. It is a little longer, and often covers a little more physical distance as well. For most guests, especially families, the Salem Night Tour is more appropriate. However, it seems to us that you would have preferred our Salem Day Tour. If you are still around Salem, or if you are ever coming back, let us know and we will make sure we get you on the Salem Day Tour next time for free! We hope to hear from you soon.
